DAN 489 - Dance Company: Senior Year

Columbia College Dance Company (CCDC) provides practical training in the skills needed to operate a dance company. In addition to developing performance skills, students practice production skills in areas such as lighting, sound, backstage crew, and front-of-house support. The course also teaches leadership skills applicable to the dance profession and beyond by enabling students to develop and demonstrate courage, commitment, confidence, and competence as they assume leadership positions within the CCDC. Participation at the senior year-level reflects increasingly responsible roles in CCDC, including mentorship of first-year students. May be taken twice for credit.
